Scat, Bobby Darin Style

Unread postby PenultimateManStanding » Thu 18 May 2006, 21:03:40

hop bop bedoo man, we're all so screwed. Bing bang I saw the whole gang, dyin' on my living room rug, they was a dying here, they was a dying there, I looked out my window they was a dyin' everywhere. Lolly pot 'n wha'choo got, bugs in my grain and the neighbors are hot. I went and put my dyin' shoes on. Ahh, I was a musin' and bluesin', I was a freakin' an a peakin', but how was I to know there was survivin' goin' on. . . (for Kochevnik, Pops, Domus Albion, and all the rest on back country farms)

Oh thank god, for a second there I thought this was about the other kind of scat.
What will arrive first? Peak Oil or the Second Coming? My money is now on the latter.

Is this some kind of hysterical jazz music?

I don't know what it's called or how to describe it but I think that's the thing I hate the most.

If you've seen Lost Highway by David Lynch and remember the scene in the garage where the guy played by Jack Nance plays this awful shit on the radio you know what I'm talking about.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Schweinshaxe', 'I')s this some kind of hysterical jazz music?
The best scat I can recall is from some jazz number where there was this chorus that went something like this:

oo pop bedah, eeyabba doo dah, bleet bleet blah

The myth is that Louis Armstrong invented "scat" singing during the recording of "Heebie Jeebies" on Feb 26 1926 (Okeh Records, Chicago). During the recording Louis knocked over his music stand--you can actually hear it if you listen closely--and had to 'fake" his way through the rest of the lyrics. The recording was a huge hit and soon everyone was "scatting".

Well, what the hell is it then? I don't want to google it for obvious reasons. (If you don't understand why, PM the pervert Lokutus and he'll explain it to you...)
